Mint Stats: White Mountain 5-ounce supplies gone

The 2013-P collector version of the White Mountain 5-ounce America the Beautiful bullion coin is now marked sold out at 20,523 pieces. The asterisk has been added. Three other 2013-P designs are remarkably close with sales just over 16,000 for each. The Mount Rushmore design has not yet gone on sale.

The 2012 five-quarter America the Beautiful proof set is not longer available. An asterisk was placed on the sales figure of 148,498.

Collectors waiting for sales of the proof 2013-W silver American Eagle to cross 800,000 will have to wait another week. Only 11,688 were sold in the prior week, bringing the ongoing total to 797,882. Bullion gold American Eagle sales are picking up after several dismal months. (See Page 1 story).

Copies of the Mint’s holiday sales catalog are reaching collectors. The impact on weekly sales numbers should begin to be felt soon.

Still no word on when 2013 First Spouse gold coins will go on sale. They were late last year, more so this year.
